Text Appearing Before Image:
he hop fields, andunder the harvest moon the after-supper frolics andhop-dances lead to merry making and matches forlife. A frontier cottage built under a volcanic ledgeoverlooking Spokane Falls, in eastern Washington,before the terrible fire of the summer of 1889, in-vites you to enter. At the left a Japanese parasolshields dainty maidens from scorching rays of mid-day sun. The owner is a prosperous banker, whobuilt this structure for a barn. With few artisticmodifications the economical cashier concludes thatthe barn is quite good enough for his contentedfamily. The outlook is superb over a vast extent ofpine-clad hills, and mountains rich with minerals. Inthe foreground is Spokane Falls, a city of 25,000,and a water power larger than that which has /nadeMinneapolis so successful. The river divided byislands into three distinct streams, pours its floodover a chasm 65 feet high, into a common basin,representing a force of 216,000 horsepower ; that ofSt. Anthony Falls is only 135,000.

ST. PETERS CHAPEL, TACOMA, WASHINGTON. TRAVELS. 407 The interior of the cottage is no less attractivethan the exterior. Here is every evidence of cul-ture and refinement. And why not civilization inthe Far West ? The East has sent West her bra-vest boys and girls and sustains their efforts withcounsel and money. California, Oregon and Wash-ington are very proud of their public school sys^terns, their seminaries, colleges and universities;already the Coast possesses clearly defined ele-ments of empire. Mt. Shasta, a cloud-like shaft, and overtoweringin its grandeur, ia^.a^a, feet high, the Monarch ofMountains, is situated in Northern California on theCalifornia and Oregon Railway, 434 miles south ofPortland, and 250 miles north of Sacramento. Halfits slope is of evergreen and half of snow^ At Sis-son, a regular dining station at the base of the moun-tain, the acme of interest is reached. Shasta, alonein its white, silent majesty, is one of the most won-derful mountains in the world. It
